VOA, 인도네시아 억류 北 선박 석탄, 말레이시아 수출 앞둬…제재 위반 가능성

A North Korean ship that's been held for about a year by the authorities in Indonesia... has recently unloaded the coal that it had been carrying.
The Wise Honest had been detained by Indonesia with 26-thousand-5-hundred tons of North Korean coal on board.
And Voice of America reports that... recent photos show the vessel was moved a few kilometers from where it was detained... to unload the coal onto a barge, a process that took about 10 days.
It was unloaded with the approval of Indonesia, which said an Indonesian individual holds a contract for the coal's sale.
And citing an unnamed source, VOA reporteds... that a Panama-flagged ship is currently taking the coal to Malaysia.
